System-generated postupgrade task

Once the console upgrade completes, a series of mandatory tasks is undertaken as part of a system-generated task that is named Post upgrade Task. This task should be allowed to complete before installing or upgrading any available plugins. Do not manually disable or stop this task.

The Post upgrade Task performs the following operations:
  • Restoring upgrade console settings
  • Restoring logging status
  • Processing configuration task parameters
  • Upgrading console settings if applicable to the current release.
  • Running email tasks
  • Sending out a reminder to disable any incompatible plugins
  • Running catalog updates for plugins
  • Running discovery tasks
  • Enabling NTP services
  • Updating the job completion status for the firmware update
  • Updating SNMP configurations
  • Setting FSD capability for the console

Check the Job status under the Monitor > Jobs view using the Source filter set for System generate.

Adding a second network interface should be done only after the completion of the Post upgrade Task. Attempt to add a second NIC while the postupgrade task is in progress would be ineffective.

You can log in immediately after the appliance is updated and do not have to wait until the entire inventory is discovered. Post upgrade all discovery configurations are performed as part of the Post upgrade Task. You may log in to the appliance during this time, but do not restart the appliance or services until the Post upgrade Task is completed.
